      }

      var andrew = {
        name: "Andrew",
        andrew.genericGreat();
      };

Hi

You should be defining genericGreet as as an element of the ryan and andrew variables using the following syntax:

greet : genericGreet

also genericGreet is defined as variable calling an anonymous function, and not a function in its own right so you do not need to add ().
